Label Tasting Notes: "Decadent flavors of ripe cherry and rich chocolate are accented by nuances of vanilla and spice. A delicate fruit acidity integrated with the natural sweetness of exceptional grapes yields an iconic Merlot of complexity and elegance."
Wine Folly Notes: I got the cherry, and this bottle is from a warmer region in California, so although it was dry, it was also quite fruity. I did not get any chocolate, vanilla, or plum notes. [WineFolly.com]
My Notes: I tried this wine with some friends at the same time as the Tortoise Creek Zinfandel a few weeks ago. I found that it had a light, fruity smell, but a much fuller body with higher tannins than the Zinfandel. I tasted some cherry, but not much else.
I did not pair this with food.
